Did Hegseth Just Declare War On Iran? Warns Of Consequences After Houthi Drone Hits U.S. Carrier

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has issued a direct and forceful warning to Iran following a serious incident involving a Houthi drone that forced the USS Harry S. Truman to take evasive action—resulting in the loss of an F-18 jet. Hegseth declared that Iran will ā€œpay the consequence at the time and place of our choosing,ā€ calling out Iran’s support for the Houthi terrorist group. Backed by President Trump’s retweet, this message signals a potential escalation as the U.S. vows to respond decisively to any further aggression in the Red Sea region. #PeteHegseth #Iran #Trump #Houthi #RedSea #USSHarrySTruman #F18Jet #DroneAttack #USMilitary #DefenseNews #MiddleEastCrisis #USIranTensions #HouthiTerrorism #Pentagon #BreakingNews #MilitaryEscalation #GulfConflict #USNavy #NationalSecurity #HegsethWarning #TrumpTweet #IranSanctions #USResponse #HouthiThreat #WarFooting #AircraftCarrier #RedSeaConflict #TrumpSpeech #MilitaryStrategy #GuardianJet Also Read Canada Election Result Marks Nationalist Comeback Against Donald Trump.
